==Locations on Earth==

===JOSH-A===

'''Joint Supreme Headquarters [[Alaska]]''' was the central command center of the [[Earth Alliance (Gundam)|Earth Alliance]] after the fall of [[GWR Victoria Class|Victoria]]. The base was constructed by the two main powers of the Earth Alliance, the [[Atlantic Federation]] and the [[Eurasian Federation]].

The JOSH-A base was destroyed in the [[Battle of JOSH-A]] by a [[Cosmic Era technology|Cyclops System]], secretly installed under the base by the [[Atlantic Federation]] itself. Being the base personnel mostly from Eurasian forces, after luring the ZAFT forces into attacking the base, the Atlantic Federation ignited the self-destruction Cyclops System, managing to 'kill two birds with one stone'. The attacking force was mostly wiped out and the base itself totally annihilated. This event tilted the inner Earth Alliance's balance of powers mostly toward the Blue Cosmos-controlled Atlantic Federation.

===Gulnahan Ravine===

The '''Gulnahan Ravine''' is a strategic pass east of [[Suez]], which is the only point in the area passable by large vehicles such as [[land battleship]]s. The [[Earth Alliance (Gundam)|Earth Alliance]] created a fortification known as the '''Lohengrin Gate''' in the middle of the Gulnahan Ravine. This base was named for its primary armament, a "Lohengrin" [[positron blaster cannon]]. This powerful weapon allowed the Lohengrin Gate to destroy any ZAFT forces that attempted to pass through the ravine. In addition, to protect the Lohengrin cannon, the [[mobile armor]] [[YMAG-X7F Gells-Ghe]] was stationed at the base. The Gells-Ghe's [[positron reflector]] shield was able to block any weapon in the ZAFT arsenal, even the battleship [[Minerva class battleship|''Minerva'']]'s "Tannhäuser" positron blaster cannon. However, the [[Minerva class battleship|''Minerva'']] was contacted by Gulnahan native [[Koniel Almeda]], who informed them of a cave system in the ravine, unknown to Alliance forces. These caves allowed [[ZGMF-X56S Impulse Gundam|ZGMF-X56S Impulse]] pilot [[Shinn Asuka]] to bypass the Gells-Ghe and destroy the Lohengrin. [[ZGMF-X23S Saviour Gundam|ZGMF-X23S Saviour]] pilot [[Athrun Zala]] took advantage of the distraction presented by Shinn's assault to disable the Gells-Ghe in close-range combat, allowing ZAFT engineers the opportunity to study the advanced mobile armor.
